5 parties (+SNP/Plaid) who all have between 11%& 25% of the popular vote. one of them has 7x as many MPs as it did. The commons speaker has changed way he allocates contributions. It’s time to legislate for more voices in regular media coverage too. Sign here

Show up + manage ourselves + support others with integrity.
This is very straightforward.
See yourself as part of a group and contribute to the group wellbeing.

Particularly if you have a grouping other than guys like yourself. Be with and do things with that group. Show up for that group.

Dear Everyone in the UK

Particularly popular news outlets and their journalists

Please note:

Bigoted loudmouth know-it-all racists, who scrape money off billionaires for favours, are great at fucking countries.

Think and vote very carefully and don't spread their claims without contextual truth.

It’s time to stop the propaganda and make sure we have real political fairness in the media. The parroting of Reform has been relentless. Sign this petition now so other voices also winning elections get legitimate coverage petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

Let’s get the issue of fairness and pluralism in how our politics is covered in the media on the agenda in parliament and by the broadcasters. Our democracy is at stake. Pass this petition around - end the propaganda. Fairness for all. petition.parliament.uk/petitions/71...

What is the point of Project 2025. Remove all non white non Christians?

Cotswoldy @cotswoldy.bsky.social · May 3

An MP (unless a Minister) only has a personal office. My MP is least active and involved in very little.

A Metro Mayor is chairperson of the area's combined authority & has to perform at official, recorded meetings.

Very likely Jenkyns will be exposed as lacking competence.

See her on HIGNFY?

Cotswoldy @cotswoldy.bsky.social · May 3

Yes, there are a lot of requirements.
A gigantic budget to manage.
Local legislative control.

These are positions of government, not the ceremonial mayoral positions.

Plenty of potential to prove again how inappropriate she is to be in this role.

Is there a bet on whether a Jenkyns is longer than:
A Sacaramouchi
A Waltz
Longer?

The US government is now a set of evil bastards.

Set all religious righteousness aside.

The US government is an unwieldy set of bastards.

Do you mean "had"
Yes
It is very uncivilised to nit realise we are (and have been) under attack

Cotswoldy @cotswoldy.bsky.social · May 2

That isn't fair or well reasoned.
We are currently entwined with US military and are, as we speak, unwinding that. That will permit a more candid commentary on Israel.
The old have good income - my mother on pension said she does not need the winter fuel payment.
Trans is a difficult for everyone.

Cotswoldy @cotswoldy.bsky.social · May 2

I know
💯 agree
That's why I said UK won't do a US trade deal

Unless he bends over for a "Political Win"

But we don't trust him, so that won't happen.

Cotswoldy @cotswoldy.bsky.social · May 2

Truth about Labour?
Removing protection?
It's literally 180⁰ opposite. Strong Employment Bill reinstates valuable protections that, since Cameron, have been removed.
I appreciate they made some bad political cost/value decisions about winter fuel & PIP but their thrust is on the side of citizens.

They intend to inflict P2025 on the UK, bearing in mind Brexit and it were the babies of Boris and Don the Con.

Same actors, same agitators, same perverted manipulators.

Same playbook, different cheap cover

Well funded lies to get deregulation-mad MPs in, to provide cover for gigantic corruption in the form of authoritarian government.
